  1. It's a bit of a bigger scale, not sure if it's actually O Gauge, but it's something like that, I understand and so I presume that it's at least largely scratch-built..
  2. OK. I was just wondering, as it has all gone a bit silent....
  3. I'm wondering if the PMs are still working on the old site, as I've seen no response to any that I've done in the last two days. I've just sent you one - let me know if it gets to you. Ta.
  4. Pivo dělá hezká těla..
  5. The Prague one is good, it's in the basement of a supermarket and I haven't been for a couple of years, but it was good enough then. There's YouTube videos and a Facebook page, if you like. Strangely enough, I understood your misunderstanding. Tell your mother that you want to go for a weekend in Hamburg!!
  6. It would have been just starting then. The entrance isn't very obvious, let me know if you're going again. It's very like the Miniatur Wunderland, all automated stuff with night-time every quarter of an hour...
  7. Did you get to see this - http://www.kralovstvi-zeleznic.cz/ - by Andel Metro station?
  8. I did, but there was a lot of work going on there at the time, and most of my trains went from Masarykovo, as I stay in Bechovice. There seemed to be no restrictions on where you could go - there were some Japanese spotters there and they were nearly under the wheels!!..
  9. Does everybody know? I see that the odd one is still posting on the old site and I've PMed those that I see, but I worry that some might not be rescued. And this in the week of the Titanic centenary, too..
  10. They have a stand in Masarykovo station - I've had some good books from there.
  11. They're good people - prepared to put up with my pidgin Czech - I bought a Tatra 8-wheel tipper kit last time.. There's another good model shop, mostly aircraft, just round the corner.
  12. I don't actually have any Czech stuff yet - but I might have the odd diesel eventually, I think. Should be over there at some point this year. Classic Model Shop in Prague is worth a look, if you go. http://www.nelso.com/cz/place/1708/
  13. I know someone who has a similar location and she has never been up there. I told her that he just plays a recording of some trains going round to cover the noise of the still.
  14. Who moderates the Super Moderator? Do we need to have a Mother-In-Law on standby?.
  15. I've never actually seen anybody use the lifts at Ballybrophy - and the new bridge is like jabbing myself in the eye with my own sore thumb every time I see it.
  16. It's rather like being a Hindu - it dies, then it lives all over again... I wouldn't rely on the last site being available for ever. The one before it is still there, but the search doesn't work, for me anyway, and so it's of little use now..
  17. Ooh, what'ya got? The 'goggles' ones are nice, but I really like the City Elefant...
  18. I suspect that I might be on my own here, but I do have a passing interest in Czech railways. I did go to Derby a couple of years ago, specifically to see Smržovka - http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ian.lampkin/smrzovkapage00.html - and very good it was, too. And it's always a handy excuse for Googling "Czech models"...
  19. You're not going to push me nearer to derailing this thread - let's bring back on track now.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAO3ZxgR1BE
  20. Philistine! He's a National Treasure. He recorded this one when he was seventy - see if you can keep up with him....
  21. Yes - it was one of his little-publicised, free, open-air concerts - this is one of the few boot-leg videos available..
  22. Stand your ground!!..

    Derby.

    I should be going to this one - http://www.mmrg.org.uk/ - probably on the Saturday. Tip me off if you're likely to be there, by any chance. It's usually a good one, I've been for the last two years and not been disappointed..
  24. Draw the line if she calls you a 'nerd'.... [video=youtube;M6Uq6H-Yhp0]
  25. Typical postman - a day late....
